Interviewed Feb 2012 (took a day)
Interview was relaxed overall. Interviewed with 3 different engineers in succession, each of which asked a mix of technical and other questions. They were nice and made working at the company sound like a pleasant experience. They seemed especially proud of their unique technologies that only foster wheeler could provide.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in Houston, TX (took a day)
The interview was actually a continuation of a conversation started at an information session given by the company at The Fox and Hound. It was quasi formal with the majority of the talking done by the senior interviewer just informing me about all of my job opportunities at the company.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Clinton, NJ (took a day)
a nice welcome to the company. An employee that I was in constant email contact with, met me in the lobby and showed me around the building. We then went over the company overview, benefits and then I got to talk 1 on 1 with 3 other employees in the areas that they work on.

Interviewed May 2008 in Houston, TX (took 2 weeks)
Submit resume and then contacted and scheduled for an interview. The interview was mostly about what the company did and its role in the industry. A couple of simple technical questions were asked about distillation troubleshooting and hydraulics. Very easy stuff. Then, a second interview directly after with similar questions and a couple behavioral questions. At the end of the second, the interviewer indicated that an offer would be very likely and contact would be in a week or two.

Reason for Declining
I wanted a job that would give me more exposure to design and operations. This company is only desk work.
